Bolt Intelligence supports text, audio, video, image and stimulus-based responses in a single study. Give participants the modality that feels natural, getting richer, more honest data as a result.
Response typesDifferent questions call for different response modes. Bolt Intelligence lets you mix and match per question, picking the format that works best for your audience.
Fast, scalable and ideal for opinion-based questions. Supports open-ended, closed-ended and ranking formats. Fully parsed by the AI analysis layer for theme extraction.
Participants answer by voice. Responses are automatically transcribed with high accuracy and fed into the same analysis pipeline as written answers. Particularly effective in voice-first cultures and mobile-heavy markets.
Capture facial expressions, emotional reactions and non-verbal cues that text simply cannot convey. Video adds buy-in within the business — insights feel real, not abstract.
Upload creative assets, product concepts, packaging or ad materials directly into the discussion guide. Participants respond to what they see, not hypotheticals. AI analysis covers both the stimulus and the response together.
Available in UX Research projects. Participants complete tasks on a live website or prototype while sharing their screen, captured alongside webcam footage and a timestamped transcript, so you see exactly what they did and how they reacted.
Stimulus TestingBolt Intelligence's stimulus upload feature allows research teams to embed creative assets, images, video clips and packaging concepts directly within the conversation flow. Participants see the stimulus and respond immediately, in the same session. The AI analysis layer processes both the stimulus and the participant's verbal or video response together, surfacing associations, sentiment and clarity scores. Where body language, tone or facial expression diverges from the words, the say-do gap is flagged automatically.

Case StudiesUnilever's categories lacked a consistent, real-time way to track post-launch innovation performance across markets — they needed to move beyond awareness measurement and enable faster, data-driven decisions.
